Oh... My.... (insert non-specific deity here).

This is awful. AWFUL. For the first time in almost 10 years, I have lost my snake.

Ophelia is a sinaloan milk snake, and big for her species.... and she is MISSING IN MY HOUSE. I am beside myself. I have torn the place apart today, and called every expert I know. If anyone out there is reading this, and you have any tips on how to catch a loose snake, please let me know!! She is my baby, I've had her since she was a tiny refugee, and I am sick at heart at the thought that she might be cruising around in the ducts, waiting for certain doom when the furnace kicks in. She just ate 3 days ago, and she has eaten well the last few months (she has these little moments sometimes when she doesnt eat for weeks and looks skinny as hell and scares me) so she could be hiding indefinitely. I don't know what to do!! Whats perhaps even more terrifying is that the cats have been eagerly helping me look all day. How can I go back to work tommorow!??!!?!? What if they find her first?!!?!? Oh GAWD....
